Lesser evil politics without pushing for better candidates and also doing community building gets you fascism. Just voting for the lesser evil and calling it a day is technically better than voting for the fascist, but not a whole lot as it lets the status quo slip.

Also, what the fuck else are you supposed to do? Be accelerationist and vote for the fascism? Just refuse to participate and and let whatever happens happen? Both of those sound like ways to also get fascism.

I mean some of them legit do (cough Fetterman), and a lot just don’t particularly care about stopping it, but that’s beside the point, I know the kind of people you’re actually talking about. There is still value in electing the lesser evil, and pushing to get better and more progressive Dems in office (that are usually better at pushing back against fascism anyways)

Both, tbh
